Chapter 397: 397. Deal With The Pope

He needed to take over the Vatican and install his own Pope but that would take him years, as he would first have to find the right cardinal and secretly support him. Then that man would have to win the election. It was too much work, but here it was, a man with one foot in his grave, even if the Pope can live until 90 with special potions then that would be helpful.

"I will help you if you in return help me." Magnus voiced.

Pope Paul felt that this was surely not about Ireland, "What may it be, your highness?"

"I want your support in ending religious extremism in Christianity, making Christianity a religion of faith and mental peace, not a way of life. Make people believe in science alongside the faith. I will try to do the same with other religions, but all this is for world peace and unity." Magnus requested. He could always obliviate the guy if he said something radical.

The Pope looked at him in shock, this came out of nowhere, "Why would you want to do this? Does it not support the capitalistic agenda if the people stay divided?"

Magnus smiled, the old man was smart, but not more than him, trying to test him was dumb, "I am the inheritor of Merlin's will, your holiness, and with him, I inherited his dreams, the one that I share too, a world where peace exists, humanity is joined as one, no discrimination of skin colour, nationality, religion, caste or anything of such kind. A world where magical beings live together as a community and pureblood thinking does not exist."

"You want to join the two worlds?" Pope asked him.

He explained briefly, "No, that would be catastrophic, that can not happen until the entire humanity has sorted out its own problems first, otherwise if we try to reveal the wizarding world right now, some politicians will create hate against magical beings to further their political agenda. So, tell me, are you going to help me? In return, I will try my best to prolong your life. You will be doing real god's work this time,"

"I didn't think you were a religious person," Pope smugly said.

"I'm not religious, I don't believe in any religion, but in god, I trust." He replied, shocking the old man a bit.

Pope Paul thought about this offer, he had no real agenda remaining as he knew he would die in a year or two. But this new opportunity to achieve greatness in his tenure as the Pope was luring. He can be the one to reform the church and bring it to greater heights, the one to make it the best religion in the world. "If... I agree, what will be my obligations?"

"You are to preach tolerance, equality of race, against religious extremism, pro-science and a few things along this line. In return, I will make you live longer, help you avoid any backlash from the church with a few wizard helpers, make you the most loved Pope in history, even more famous than Pope Leo I and Pope Innocent III." Magnus offered, this was more like a devil's deal in reality, but it was subjective to who was the one being used.

Magnus cared only for the future of humanity, religion had no place in the space civilization, because he knew, if religion and its more extremist parts still survived, it could result in a catastrophic situation, just imagine entire planets being taken over by some fanatic cult ideology or something. [A/N: Basically Star Wars.]

Pope Paul, a man who learnt not to be greedy, did feel the greed that was called "greed for greatness". All popes strive to be the best and only a few out of the 256 past Popes have been able to leave a mark in history. He looked at Magnus, unable to see any evil intentions, him being a Protestant meant nothing, for he too was a believer of Christ, "Then I agree with you, your highness."

"Marvellous, let's sign the necessary agreement and have an unbreakable vow, so we both stand by our words." He proposed.

So, the two slowly came to terms and wrote them down on a magical contract paper. Then, these same vows were to be taken, a third witness wizard was needed so Magnus called Emma to come via apparition. She was amazed by the architecture of the building, but Magnus mentally reminded her to stay silent.

The Pope spoke his terms, "Will you, Magnu Grant Emrys Pendragon, help me reform the church, speak about the idea of peace, love and acceptance, and help me truly become the most loved Pope in history, without harming the Church?"

Again, harming the church was subjective, If Magnus by doing whatever he wanted, was stopping people from losing their faith from the church then all was acceptable.

"I will," Magnus agreed.

Immediately, a string of lights came off of Emma's wand who had placed it on the clasped hands of Magnus and the Pope. This was perhaps a history in the making, decades from now, this event might as well be regarded as the most important point in the history of Christianity and Magnus would be regarded as an unofficial saint for working to unite the world.

Magnus spoke his terms, "Giovanni Battista Enrico Antonio Maria Montini, will you to the best of your ability work as I ask you to ensure the betterment of the world, to spread peace and unity?"

Magnus kept his terms vague, this will give him a lot of leeway to make the Pope do some things. The Pope nodded, "I will,"

Once again, a string came out of Emma's wand and tied the hands. This finalised their Unbreakable vow, the one to break it shall die. The contract paperwork was also signed.

He shook hands, "Please call me Magnus from now on, Paul,"

Pope Paul happily agreed, "So, what should we do first, Magnus?"

"Ireland, you should first speak against what's happening there, punish the Bishops working there, you need to make the world regain their trust in Papal authority and show that you are just and kind. Stop ruling like a politician, rule like the Popes of the long past, like KINGS!" Magnus suggested to him, of course, it would be a King without authority and army, but still, as long as Paul shows a backbone it would do wonders.

"And here, drink this rejuvenation potion," He handed him a vial. The same one that made Lord Mountbatten so loyal.

With this, Magnus made a deal that would change the world. Now, it was time to deal with his annoyed bored kitten and tell the Italian branch of MEDA to deal with the kidnapping of the ex-prime minister. "Yeah, get the man and kill or arrest all the members of Red Brigades and hand them to the police."

After giving his orders, in merely 1 hour the ex-prime minister was found and brought to the hospital. [A/N: In real life, he was killed.]

...

"I'm bored," she complained.

"Fine fine, I will give you a piggyback ride," He sighed and took her to a secluded area, from there he turned into his dragon form and headed back home.

"WOHOOO!" Emma screamed in excitement.

"Enjoy, but my body aches every time I turn into a dragon. It's too much body manipulation I guess," He muttered to himself.

He flew directly over the English Channel and then around the UK and landed in Camelot. The reason was that he could not turn invisible. Speaking of turning invisible, Duck had been gone on his journey for a few months now.

"Where is Duck now?" He asked Martha.

"He is currently in Africa, playing with a few native tribes there. Wherever he goes he makes lots of friends, next he will be going to a few European countries. But I am worried he has some secret motives," she ended with a warning tone.

"What plans?" he inquired.

"Duck was telling me about how dragons are treated badly in some places. I am worried he might be planning on liberating them and bringing them here to live." She revealed.

Taken aback, Magnus laughed at the same time, "Hahaha... as I would expect from my boy. Tell me when he starts liberating the dragons, if any wizarding government tries to harm him I will intervene. I will just proclaim that my dragon blood has attracted me to the pleas of the poor dragons. Since I rule the mass media, I can shut them up quickly."

Martha sighed, "You seriously spoil him, I reckon you'd even help him if tomorrow he says he wants to eat the sun."

Magnus quickly looked up, "Hmm, I will have to make some new spells for that."

"H-he's really considering it," Emma exclaimed.

"Bwahah... just kidding. Grandma Martha, get ready, it's New Year's dinner at my home." He nudged her. She was, after all, family.

However, a shiver ran down his spine as he thought that and an image of a crazy bald man appeared in his head.

Chapter 398: 398. To The MOON!

It was the 31st of December, 1977, the entire nation was celebrating. The New Year was here, and it was the perfect opportunity to announce that Ragnar "developed" a machine and method to make strong houses with recycled plastics.

"Oye, have you read all the things I gave you? You just need to tell vague things about the composition of your plastic dissolving liquid and talk more about the machine. We have already constructed a sample house with the machine in our warehouse. The press will be called there." Magnus prepared for his brother's fame in the muggle world.

"What a drag, I could be researching more potions right now," Ragnar sighed tiredly.

"Fine, you're not coming to the moon then." Magnus put away the papers.

"WAIT! I'll memorise it. The moon is more important, imagine the juicy ingredients." Ragnar dreamily said.

...

They soon arrived inside the large warehouse where a model of the house was rebuilt. They had not removed the machines either so people could see how it even worked. Bobby had taken care of the PR, the people had no idea that Magnus and Ragnar would be there as well.

The only different thing about this new house was its pattern and shape. It cannot have a sharp corner, so the end result does not look box-like and rather more futuristic.

The house they had prepared was a duplex house, it had a big master bedroom on the ground floor, big living room and kitchen, on the top floor were two more bedrooms, two balconies and then the top was the terrace. The entire thing had a very pleasant look, from inside it was fully furnished to show what good investment on the inside can get one. Of course, when these houses are made in poor nations they won't be made to look futuristic but rather to provide cheap homes.

"This is the team that programmed the machine for you, you already know Freya, the CEO and the founder of DailyMart, you invested in the company, it's now spread around entire Western Europe." Bobby introduced them.

Magnus remembered this girl and her idea, he invested in it and he was gaining a lot in return. The company had worked wonders and now covers the entirety of the United Kingdom and even newer territories. While in other European countries the service was only available in the cities.

"Well, everyone, this is my brother, Ragnar, he might sound dumb sometimes but I assure you he's smart." Magnus introduced Ragnar.

"Fuck you, Magnus. And hello, I am smarter than this guy actually." Ragnar finished his sentence by using Legilimency to say it in Magnus's head, ~This guy can't even brew a 1st-year potion,~

"Don't start a fight now, let's go and meet the journalists. I've been feeding them snacks this whole time and they eat like whales, I don't wanna be bankrupt." Bobby jokingly pushed them along to the small platform made for them to sit on.

...

It was advertised that they would be making a huge announcement so a lot of national and international news agencies had come. The hype was increased because whenever in the past the company made an announcement it turned out to be a billion-dollar idea.

They were very confused right now as they could see the machinery in the background and the big house. But had no idea what was so special about it.

Once everyone was set in their seats and the cameras were rolling, Bobby entered, with Magnus and Ragnar. This alone earned a lot of awes and noises.

Bobby started, "Thank you for coming here, everyone. I called you here for two things, two announcements will be made. One concerns all three of us and the future of this nation, while the other concerns Ragnar here. Let's hear him out first."

Ragnar nodded and stood up, a mic was in his hand, "Hello, I am the secret mysterious prince, Ragnar. Well, I will keep it short. The building you see behind me was made entirely via a printing method. Yes, the building is printed.

"The material used in it was nothing but recycled plastic. I have found a new way to turn plastic into this thick liquid material that when hardened is stronger than cement. The machine behind me can create a variety of houses.

"In the first phase, Magnus and I have decided to develop a housing district outside London in collaboration with the government to build highly affordable housing for the people to buy and move in. This will be experimental for now, if it's successful we will expand it all. The best thing about these houses is that they can easily be demolished later and the material be reused.

"You all are free to enter the building behind me and check it out. We will resume the press conference after lunch, thank you." Ragnar put the mic away and walked off the stage. Magnus and Bobby followed.

"Haha, that was much better than expected," Bobby praised him.

Magnus too, "Yeah, I'm surprised he didn't start cursing and speaking nonsense. Seriously, who are you? What did you do to me sweet little bother?"

Ragnar scoffed, "Like hell I'm gonna show my true self to the world. I'mma be like those Hollywood celebrities, shit in real life, a saint in reel life."

Anyway, things proceeded as expected, the people were left in awe of the building. It was unimaginable to think a machine made it, the only thing that differentiated it from a normal house was the pattern of the wall.

After lunch, everyone gathered in their places again and it was Magnus who spoke this time. "Hello, we are going to make a big announcement today. We have been working on this for years now, thousands of scientists, researchers, engineers, my dad himself was involved in it. I, Bobby and Ragnar helped too.

"The FuterTek Space has decided to send a manned mission to the Moon next year in August. The three people going there will have a few objectives, one, to check if water can be extracted from the surface. Two, if we can establish a base there. Third, if there is anything worth extracting from the moon soil. Our goal is the advancement of humanity as one species.

"The three people who will go there first will be Bobby, me and Ragnar. Since Bobby is a genius in Computers and Mechanical Engineering, I am good at biology, physics and mechanical engineering. Ragnar meanwhile is great at chemistry, biochemistry and a lot of different subjects related to the science of elements."

The cameras flashed faster than their eyes could blink, the journalists launched a barrage of questions, like who made the rocket, was the government was involved or when will they get to see it. Where was the launch site going to be?

The launch site was being developed as a permanent launching pad for all future missions, but it was not an easy task to decide on it. The problem was that in the east of the UK there was an entire Europe.

It is a known fact that the rockets are launched eastwards because it provides an additional boost to the rocket due to the rotational speed of Earth. So, eastwards was the only logical way to send a rocket.

After extensive research of finding a launch site, they came upon the one British Overseas territory that had not long ago joined the United Kingdom, it was the small nation of Belize, earlier known as British Honduras. It was a small Central American nation, adjacent to the Caribbean Sea. This means they can do an eastward launch without any worry of mishaps.

The small addition to the United Kingdom was happy with this new development as this would bring in lots of jobs and industries.

After 3 long hours of answering the questions, they retreated to their personal offices.

...

That night, the Grant family, Emma and her family, Bobby and his family, Severus and his family, and even Dumbledore with Fawkes and his family gathered in the Strawberry Hill House to celebrate the new year.

They gathered around in the huge open yard of the house where decorations were made. Nice food and drinks were readily available. Even the queen arrived after fulfilling her official obligations at the palace and addressing the special dinner.

"OH! The old immortal lady is here," Maximus exclaimed. He and his two sisters had just turned 4 this Christmas.

Queen Elizabeth laughed, "Haha, why do you call me that?"

"Because you are our Grandma but still look so young," Aurelia said.

"Well, I'm sure your mum will look even better than me at my age. What will you call her then?" the Queen asked them.

The triplets confusedly tilted their faces, then Aurelia replied like it was so obvious, "Oh, mum is mum, and because she is mum, she will always be younger than grandma,"

"YES! this means she will always be young," Maximus added.

However, Clementia, the silent one, was not sure about this reasoning, so she stayed silent as always.

"Oh, I love you three so much, Merry Christmas." the Queen just hugged them lovingly.
